I don't want to be an ass, but, wow you just added one bottom bar and one top bar, incredible?!

And i must say, you whole UI is just way to big. It would be a lot better if your whole screen was not clutered with your round border everywhere.

Your casting bar and timer are not centered on your action bars-- unless you made it that way.

I might steal these unit frames from you! Not been on that much the weekend, I went out and now I'm suffering because of it.

This evening I think it's time for a sit down and have a mess around with a new UI.

I recommend waiting for r4, it's a little more tweaked.

New UFs! Very TukUI-esque, but oh well Don't know where to put the pet/ToT frames, any suggestions? Soul Shards/HolyPower/Combo Points in the middle. What do ya think?

EDIT: I fixed the height of the HP bars to fit the HP%

Always a fan of your work. Folks, if you wanna get out of the pixel-fonts-and-microscopically-small-stuff bubble while still enjoying the benefits of minimalism, this UI is a good way to start.

Pleeeaaaaassee do buy gametime again. I would love to see anything non pixel-fonts-and-microscopically-small-stuff coming from you. I really love Hneriks UI, as I loved his former 2 ui's or so (http://www.wowuigallery.com/topic/emeral-ui-1 and http://www.wowuigallery.com/topic/korda-ui).

Judging from the LAST screenshot, is the UI actually anything special? Imo no. Does it look good, or is it any good? Hell yes. He uses a rounded texture and makes sure every element has the same rounded background texture. The font is still a pixelfont as far as I can see. Now replace the rounded texture with a texture seen in most UI's, and make the rounded background a pixelborder and you get an almost everyday UI.

I certainly hope you don't take this as bad criticism Henrik, cause I truly am a fan. I just disagree with Haylie

I'm not sure why, but you seem to think that nobody who's doing pixelfont UIs have ever done anything else?
I started out doing UIs with 'regular' fonts. I still remember some of Sylv's UIs from several years back using 'regular' fonts. I remember the old LynUI, and I know the new ones, that happen to use 'regular' fonts.

I just personally feel that pixelfonts look better, and I'm used to them. I tried doing one with regular fonts a few weeks back but I fell back to pixel. Why change something that works? I'm very happy with the UI I'm currently using. It's very minimalistic and looks very nice while still being very functional. Thanks again Sylv.
Ofcourse that's just my opinion though.

But, if you don't mind me asking, why do you hate on the pixelfonts? You used them too for quite some time, if I'm not mistaken?

Funny you mention that. I'm currently studying a topic in school that I think could be applied to the WoW UI with a little adaptation. More on that later.

Judging from the LAST screenshot, is the UI actually anything special? Imo no.
Okay, then what would be "special" enough for you? More pixel stuff? Everyone's doing it now that it's become the norm. Artistic stuff? You then complain that it serves no purpose in a UI. What does a UI need to be "special" for you? To be one of your own?

I hope you don't take this the wrong way. I admire your work and you've helped shape the tastes and design principles of the current UI scene into putting functionality and minimalism above all else. But face it. You're stuck in a rut. You apparently have nothing new to bring to the community. Just the same pixel stuff, with different colors and unit frames to the left instead of the right or whatever minor changes you make that constitute a new UI in your eyes.

Again, don't take it as a personal attack. I'd probably recycle the same ideas if I were back in the game, which is one of the reasons why I quit. I accepted the fact that I had nothing new to bring, so I stopped.

Note that I'm not advocating anyone to do the same.

Does it look good, or is it any good? Hell yes. He uses a rounded texture and makes sure every element has the same rounded background texture. The font is still a pixelfont as far as I can see. Now replace the rounded texture with a texture seen in most UI's, and make the rounded background a pixelborder and you get an almost everyday UI.
No you don't. Your "everyday UI" nowadays means either the generic-class colored-small-unitframes-pixel-fonts or the Tuk ripoffs. Even if you put pixel borders and class colors on it, it will not resemble either of those two. It would be a simple, minimalist UI without the "small pixel font" and "lua-only" prejudices usually associated with that word and which spoiled minimalism for so many people.

I just disagree with Haylie
You disagree with me on what? That it's a good exercise in minimalism? That it's a good UI? That it's different from most UIs currently being posted?

I'm not forgetting that. It's just that nobody is doing anything else NOW.

I just personally feel that pixelfonts look better, and I'm used to them.
Fine by me. Thing is, everyone seems to like pixel fonts these days. They are fine, great even. Just stop posting the same UI everywhere, all the time. If it's the "perfect" UI and you can't do any better, why do people keep making minor changes and post it again? It's almost starting to look like an addiction or something.

But, if you don't mind me asking, why do you hate on the pixelfonts? You used them too for quite some time, if I'm not mistaken?
I don't hate pixel fonts. I don't like the fact that they are overused and they spoil the notion of "minimalism".

Shameless bump /repost

I was looking for some feedback on the new look of my ui. But I got lost in some conversation a few pages back=(

LOL, Anyway, went a different route with textures, added a new font, and changed a few other minor things. Still far from complete but it is getting there.

As always I look forward to the great feedback

I certainly hope so.
Okay, then what would be "special" enough for you?
Quite simple, something new. First example that pops up in my mind is using your powerbar as a sort of natural border for your UF's. The guy who came up with the idea of making a square minimap, Nin with his oUF layout etc. Things like that.
You're stuck in a rut.
Yep, tho I think that my design philosophy (and thus most of my UI's) works excellent for me. It's like you said "putting functionality and minimalism above all else", which makes my rut a lot more satisfying then most UI's I see.
Even if you put pixel borders and class colors on it, it will not resemble either of those two. It would be a simple, minimalist UI without the "small pixel font" and "lua-only" prejudices usually associated with that word and which spoiled minimalism for so many people.
So what actually is the thing you find so special about his UI? For me it's just one of the best minimalist UI's and Henrik is able due to his coding experience to give the whole UI one general theme. It looks nice, it probably plays nice.
That it's different from most UIs currently being posted?
This basically.
